Disclaimer: Same as last time
A/N: Still not much happening, but good anyway! Just one more chapter till the action starts! Also, this chapter was written by Courtney, not Dani. And 'Lia' is short for Cordelia.
1 Chapter Two
"Dear Eric, luv ya! Meet with me and Dana after school at Rizzaro's." Eric read aloud, leaning on his locker. He folded the loose leaf in half and turned to find Dana eavesdropping.
"Hi, great. Now I'm meeting at places when I don't even know about it," Dana smiled.
"Hey, what are you two doing?" Cordelia said from behind them.
"Nothing. I was just reading this note you left me."
"But, Eric. I didn't leave you a note." Cordelia responded.
"Ha! Psyche! I gotcha! You two are so gullible. Eric, you can't just assume it's from Lia. It could be from someone else," Dana said, satisfied with another one of her corny pranks. All three of them knew they were incredibly stupid, but they'd been playing them on each other since the 2nd grade, so the pranks just became a part of their friendship.
"Oh, my God. You're always up to something," Cordelia rolled her eyes. She was a girl who could take a joke.
"Alright, but I'm starved. Let's go for a pizza."
Rizzaro's was almost like their "hangout." Hardly anyone they knew went there. It was their secluded place, which is why they all loved it.
With Dana and Cordelia around, it was almost like Eric had forgotten about Isla Sorna. Almost.
"Okay, kids, what'll it be?" questioned the waiter.
"Medium plain and three large Cokes," they all said in sync. They agreed on mostly everything.
The waiter took a moment to jot down their requests then left. There was a moment of silence.
"You know Eric, we know how scary that whole thing was for you, and we understand if you don't wanna talk about it," Cordelia began quietly.
"Yeah, but you know you can always talk to us about anything, right?" Dana finished for her.
Eric nodded slightly. "I know. Thanks, that means a lot. If I ever need to talk, I know who to call."
"Pizza," interrupted the waiter.
"Well, you missed a lot while you were gone. Not that it was your fault or anything," Cordelia changed the subject thoughtfully.
"Not that it was you fault or anything," Dana mumbled quietly in mushy, high-pitched voice. She liked to tease Eric and Cordelia about their somewhat sappy relationship. When she saw the fake-annoyed looks the two were giving her, she changed the subject again.
"Well, anyway, you know Chelsea, right? Well, her being her ditzy self and everything…" Dana's voice faded in Eric's mind. She kept talking, but he wasn't really listening.
Eric was thinking. About the island. He knew everything was safe, but he just had that… feeling. That he was going back… unwillingly.

A/N: Oooooh, that's foreshadowing of something. Uh-oh, what's gonna happen? You'll have to tune in to chapter 3 to find out. Please R n' R. Thanx!
